About the original work of art: Burne-Jones painted two
sets of three angels playing musicalinstruments, a small set in oil and a
larger one in tempera. (Tempera was a medium favored by Italian
Renaissance artists and involved the fusion of pigments with water and
egg yolk. Burne-Jones was one of the few -- if not the only --
Aesthetic Movement artists to revive its use.
The artist retained this work in his own studio for ten years
before parting with it to the dealers from whom it was immediately
bought. Ah, I can understand why the artist was loathe to part with it,
and why a buyer immediately snapped it up.
